Ban inflow of funds to missionaries: Mahant

Shri Ram Janambhoomi Trust President Mahant Ram Chandra Paramhans today demanded a ban on inflow of foreign aid to Christian institutions, expressing his concern over "suspicious activities" of foreign missionaries in north-eastern States.

In a joint press statement issued here along with senior trustee Jagatgura Ramanujacharya Purushottamacharya, the Mahant demanded divesting of special status being enjoyed by "separatist" religious minorities.

"Reservation facility should also be withdrawn from those persons belonging to the scheduled castes and tribes who have converted to Christianity," they said.

Warning of agitational programme against the State Governments of the North-East, the Mahant said steps should be initiated to safeguard the interest of the Hindu community there.

The Mahant alleged that Hindu temples were perpetually under attack in the North-East and Jammu and Kashmir and Hindus were not allowed to exercise their religious rights enshrined in the Constitution.
